Otterfolk

The first time I visited Lamacarres Harbor, as I visited the waterfront, I was treated to an interesting sight a group of young Otterfolk were swimming and enjoying their time in the waters. They were amazing to watch I had never seen such grace of any creature moving through the water with great ease.
